- Supports healthy circulation and your body’s natural recovery
- Promotes deep, restorative sleep
Key Features
Earth's healing energy. Wrapped around you
- Grounding for the hours you're awake and resting.
The mattress pad grounds you overnight; the blanket grounds you everywhere else you settle in: the sofa, a recliner, a reading chair, or layered over the bed. Wrap up and the Earth's free electrons flow in through the silver-woven cotton, which is why customers most often notice the evening wind-down feels calmer first, then easier sleep and less lingering tension. - 12% pure silver, woven right through.
Fine silver fiber is one of the most conductive materials there is. Many lower-cost blankets use a fraction of this; we weave 12% silver into 88% organic cotton with a soft velvet finish, so the connection is strong and even across the whole blanket and never feels scratchy against skin. - Works through a light layer.
Direct skin contact is strongest, but a tee, pajamas or a sheet between you and the blanket still lets the electrons through. It connects to the grounding pin of any standard outlet with the included cord. No heat, no electricity, nothing to charge.

How do I wash it?
Like any throw you actually use - in the washing machine. Unsnap the cord first, then wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and air dry; it's a big blanket, so give it room to dry flat or over a rail. The one rule worth remembering: skip bleach, fabric softener and dryer sheets. They leave a film on the silver fiber that gradually dulls the connection, and none of them are needed to get it clean. Avoid anything with chlorine or strong oxidizers for the same reason.
Because it's a throw rather than a sheet, it needs washing less often - every few weeks with normal use, or whenever lotions, pet hair or a spilled drink call for it. With this care the silver keeps conducting for years, and the free outlet tester lets you confirm your outlet is grounded any time you move it to another room.

The clinical evidence
Recent grounding research includes randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials and peer-reviewed research examining sleep quality, stress, pain, inflammation, blood flow, and recovery. Recent literature points to measurable effects on sleep and stress while showing beneficial pain and inflammation-related outcomes.
2025: Grounded sleep significantly improved sleep quality, insomnia severity, daytime sleepiness, stress, and total sleep time.
Park et al., Advances in Integrative Medicine, 2025 — randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled earthing mat study. Sixty participants used either a grounding mat or placebo mat for 6 hours per day over 31 days, with positive outcomes measured using validated sleep scales, stress measures, and actigraphy.
2023: Grounding was shown to be a potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant intervention.
Sinatra et al., Biomedical Journal, 2023 — peer-reviewed review discussing grounding's positive effects on inflammation, oxidative stress, cardiovascular function, and recovery.
2022: Grounding improved sleep-quality scores in a placebo-controlled pilot study.
Lin et al., Healthcare, 2022 — randomized, double-blind pilot study using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Participants receiving grounding showed improved sleep-quality scores after a 12-week intervention.
2020: A peer-reviewed study linked grounding with reduced pain, inflammation, and stress, plus improved sleep and blood flow.
Menigoz et al., EXPLORE, 2020 — peer-reviewed review of grounding research and clinical observations. The authors summarize evidence showing that grounding may reduce inflammation, pain, and stress while improving blood flow, energy, sleep, and overall well-being.

Conductivity comes from silver. But not all silver is equal.
Silver is one of the most conductive and resilient materials on Earth. When woven into cotton at sufficient density, it creates a durable, breathable fabric that carries the Earth's charge from ground to skin. The number that matters is the silver content percentage — the higher the density, the stronger and more reliable the connection.
Most cheap grounding blankets you'll find on Amazon contain 5–8% silver. At that density, conductivity is patchy and drops off quickly with washing. We weave the Earthbound blanket at 12% pure silver on an 88% organic cotton base — enough density for a strong, even connection that holds up to regular use.
Real people. Real grounding results.
Here's what they have to say:





What is grounding?
Grounding is simply putting your body in direct contact with the Earth's surface, the way you do when you walk barefoot on grass or sand. The Earth holds a limitless supply of free electrons, and when you're connected to it, those electrons flow into your body. Rubber soles, raised beds and insulated floors have cut most of us off from that connection almost entirely.
Research shows those free electrons act as natural antioxidants, helping to neutralize the free radicals that drive inflammation. In published studies, participants who grounded while they slept reported falling asleep faster, waking less often and feeling less pain within the first few nights. An Earthbound pad brings that connection indoors: a grounding cord links the conductive carbon fiber to the earth port of your outlet, so you reconnect for eight hours a night without changing a thing about how you sleep.
One connection. Felt everywhere.
Modern life kept you insulated from the Earth's free electrons. Grounding can support nearly every system that inflammation touches.
Sleep & circadian rhythm
Grounding may help regulate cortisol and calm the nervous system at night, so you fall asleep faster and wake more rested. Many people notice deeper, less interrupted sleep within the first week.
93% of participants reported better sleep within the first four nights of grounding. — Oschman et al., 2015, Journal of Inflammation Research
Inflammation & everyday pain
The Earth's free electrons behave like natural antioxidants, which may help neutralize the low-grade inflammation behind stiff mornings, aching joints and slow recovery. Thermal imaging has recorded measurable reductions in inflammation after grounding.
Medical infrared imaging showed reduced inflammation and participants reported less pain after grounding. — Oschman, Chevalier & Brown, 2015, Journal of Inflammation Research
Circulation & blood flow
Grounding has been shown to increase the surface charge of red blood cells and lower blood viscosity, which may support healthy circulation. Warmer hands and feet is one of the first things people mention.
Two hours of grounding improved red blood cell zeta potential and blood viscosity in every subject measured. — Chevalier, Sinatra et al., 2013, Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine
Stress & the nervous system
Grounding may nudge the body out of fight-or-flight and toward rest-and-digest. Studies have measured lower sympathetic nervous system activity and a calmer heart-rate profile while grounded.
Grounded subjects showed a measurable reduction in sympathetic nervous system activity. — Passi et al., 2017
Muscle recovery
Athletes ground after hard sessions for a reason: research has measured lower markers of muscle damage and less soreness in grounded subjects, with recovery that tracked days ahead of the control group.
Grounded participants reported less soreness and showed lower markers of muscle damage after intense exercise. — Brown, Chevalier & Hill, 2010, Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine
Energy & focus
When sleep deepens and inflammation eases, daytime follows: less brain fog, steadier energy, fewer afternoon crashes. Most people notice the shift in the second to fourth week.
Grounding during sleep normalized night-time cortisol rhythms, with participants reporting less fatigue. — Ghaly & Teplitz, 2004, Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine
Immune support
Chronic inflammation keeps the immune system busy in the background. By helping to neutralize excess free radicals, grounding may let your body's defenses spend less effort on inflammation and more on the job they're for.
A review of grounding research links it to reduced inflammation, improved immune response and faster wound healing. — Oschman, Chevalier & Brown, 2015, Journal of Inflammation Research
Backed by 20+ peer-reviewed studies on grounding.
The Clinical Trial said 93% slept better within 4 nights. Here's what that actually looks like.

So happy to see the new technology!
I have known about Earthing for many years, but I was so happy to see the new technology spring up that allows for conductivity without direct skin on a sheet! This is great! I am sleeping better and very pleased with the size of the mat!
Thanks for the start of my restorative sleep again
After dealing with serious menopausal symptoms, including lack of sleep, nervousness...etc. I starting looking elsewhere than medications that were making it worse. I pulled a blind folded study on my husband and decided not to tell him that it was on our bed. After a couple of weeks, I noticed, and he also mentioned, that he is sleeping deeper. Recently I started having dreams again. This is a great product, my only suggestion would be to find a way to know that the current is working on the mattress instead of testing every week (my outlet only has this plugged in) Thanks for the start of my restorative sleep again.
Finally sleeping through the night
Sleep more soundly, up less during night, nagging aches seem to disappear. Love the pillow covers also, great for neck and shoulder areas. Very comfortable.
Makes quite an impact
I am extremely pleased with my purchase. I believe it has helped me sleep sounder and actually dreamt which does not happen very often. I have felt more rested daily. I removed it for a week and felt a need to put it back on my bed because I felt tired. I am very happy with the purchase and I will buy again. Thank you very much for a quality grounded pad. Excellent product and makes quite an impact on my sleeping and less tired during the day. Highly recommend.
More durable than grounding sheets
Works as good as the sheets I had that wore out due to washing. Problem solved!
This pad is worth every penny
The grounding mat is excellent. It fully covers and stays in place on our king bed. Our normal wake up - all body pain and stiffness- has become a memory as we wake up almost pain and stiffness free. This pad is worth every penny. We added to it by placing miracle sheets on the bed and pillow cases. Great combo.
Pain relieved
I believe the mattress pad has not only helped me get a better night sleep, but has also helped to heal the pain in my right hip.
Glad I replaced my sheet
I had been using a grounding sheet that was effective when I first purchased it, then through repeated washings it lost its efficacy. Replacing it with this grounding pad has been a revelation. I'm sleeping more deeply. And dreaming more! I'm glad I replaced the old sheet with the pad from Earthbound.
I expect continued improvement
I had a grounding mat before this one, and after five years, it was disintegrating so I threw it away. After a week, my joints were hurting and I was sleeping very poorly. I didn't immediately find your website, so I bought a grounding sheet for $189. After a couple of weeks, it was obvious it wasn't as good as a grounding mat. I then found your website and placed an order. My joints feel much better, and my edema is improved. I have slept through a few nights without waking up or turning over, as I had slept for several years. I expect continued improvement.
This way you can use your regular sheets
Love it, sleeping better, pet sleeping on bed sleeps better. We shared one with someone else and she is loving it too. We have the extra one on our guest room bed. Thank you I think the whole mattress cover is the best, I wasn’t liking the look of the sheets draped over. This way you can use your regular sheets.
I'm a believer
I'm not as convinced for me but I have seen a BIG change in my wife's sleep. She has been sleeping in a way we have not seen in a long time. It's real. I'm a believer.
Slow to tell, slow to feel
Slow to tell. Slow to feel. I am in constant extreme pain. Did the grounding mat help. 100%. Did I feel it right away...no. it's been weeks. Do I feel it now...absolutely 100% yes. Got a long way to go. This absolutely mysterious grounding mat has helped. I am, every day, less and less in pain. Do I attribute to this mysterious grounding mat? How could I not. Day by day....less and less all over body pain. Coincidence...I don't think so. Am I pain free.. no. Less mobility pain..100%. Do I recommend... yes. You don't know the benefits until you try. I attribute my reduction in all over pain to this magnificent mar. Do it.
I am able to get out of bed easier
I feel like the mattress pad is really helping with my pain in the morning. I am able to get out of bed easier and seem to be sleeping more deeply and waking less times a night. It has only been about a month and am hoping that this will continue to improve as more time goes on.
I was finally able to fall asleep
I've only used it a few nights and am already seeing a difference in sleep quality. I have arthritis and the first night was painful. I had been traveling for a week and the night after I returned was especially painful after a day of shuttles, airports, and flying. Mat probably reduced the pain enough I was finally able to fall asleep. I take no prescription or otc pain meds, so it may have been a pretty good test. Last night was far better and slept quietly and well. Looking forward to even longer sleep periods with less and less pain.
I have rarely ever slept through the entire night
I am 45 years old and ever since I can remember I have rarely ever slept through the entire night. Waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to go back to sleep was a normal thing for me. I was skeptical about the grounding mat at first. I am so glad I got it. I'm getting a good night's rest. I definitely recommend it.
This is a major improvement in my life
I have used the grounding mat before, but it was rather small and would move in the night. This is amazing. It works amazing and I could tell the next morning when I woke up. I was so well rested and my joints actually are not hurting like not at all.. It’s insane that the first day I could tell a huge difference on each day it still keeps happening so I was saying this is a major major improvement in my life and I appreciate it so much thanks guys !
Thank you for a superior product
It works. Sleeping better and less pain in the morning. I have it connected to an 8ft grounding rod and using a multimeter to test for ground through our Cotton bed sheet and it definitely is grounded. Thank you for a superior product...
I had been a bit skeptical
I just love the mattress pad. I had been a bit skeptical but thought what have you got lose, other than money, Let me tell you it was the best purchase ever. I had trouble falling asleep with my insomnia and pain from neuropathy. I tried cannabis which sometimes helped with sleep but did nothing for my neuropathy. Once we put on the mattress pad things started to change. After the first night I was able to fall asleep within minutes and the best part, neuropathy no longer bothered me at night and sleep through the night only to get up to use the bathroom and was then able to fall back asleep almost immediately.
I’m ecstatic and would recommend it to anyone
I have struggled with insomnia my whole life. I tried EVERYTHING. Sleep studies, feng shui, no electronics, sleep apps, plus the nightly concoction of pills that “kind of” worked was ridiculous….Ambien, melatonin, 2 Benadryl. Maybe I’ll be asleep by 1AM. Nothing worked. I’ve been using the grounding mat for a month. The first week I was skeptically enthusiastic but still suspicious. I thought it was probably psychosomatic and would quit working. I’m a month in, and I’m still not sure I understand, but this mat is a miracle. I sleep. I fall asleep much more quickly, I relax and I stay asleep. Like a full night of sleep! I can’t tell you the last time I slept all night….my typical routine was 3-4 nights of little to no sleep and then a night where I would crash but was restless and still woke up tired. I have slept every night. Even my husband is amazed. I also travel for work. I bought a twin size to travel with and I am sleeping really well while traveling also. I chose the mat over the sheets because I thought it would last longer and would be cleaner. I’m ecstatic and would recommend anyone with sleep issues to try it. Maybe it’s voodoo magic, I don’t care. I sleep!
Don't feel the need to take a nap after lunch anymore
I have definitely noticed that I am sleeping much more soundly and a bit longer than usual for me. In return, my energy level has risen, but at 80, I'm not sure how much of an improvement I can expect. I don't feel the need to take a nap after lunch on a regular basis anymore.
